It is unknown whether the term 'part-troll' describes an actual human/troll cross-breed or if it is just a derogatory phrase used to insult large, agressive, and foul-smelling wizards and witches. Given the context in which it appears in the novels (described as a small instance of humour), the latter is most likely.
